Welcome to Daayiee's Place of Inner Peace. No matter where
we live, globally, Shari’ah influence our lives. However, as individuals,
couples, and families, whenever we face conflict of a personal or familial nature,
do we know if it is religion or culture where the conflict lies? Do you possess
a good understanding of Shari'ah to respond to your questions? Are there
questions that you do not know how to approach to find an answer? If so,
together we may be able to find those solutions.

Over the past 12 years, I have used religious counseling
based upon traditional Islamic scholarship in fiqh and Ijtihad.Learning the foundational standards of
Shari’ah Sciences—the tools for developing traditional and alternative conclusions;
then filtering for culture and human rights standards—a balanced evaluation of
traditional and alternative points of view reveal the best solutions for each
case—just like the message of Quran.Muslims
that I have counseled using this method report a strong sense of personal well-being
and happiness with their results.

If you are an individual, couple, or family facing an important
life issue causing personal discomfort, disharmony in your relationships, and
strife in your life, it is important to get the facts, develop alternatives,
and find your solution.Here at Daayiee's
Place of Inner Peace, I care for my clients, and my goal is to provide you with
the best religious counseling to meet your spiritual needs.

find your inner peace.

May Allah continue to guide and bless us all, Ameen.

BEGINNINGS

As an American native, born
and raised in Detroit, Michigan, I had early exposure to
Muslims living in the Detroit metropolitan area. Years
of interacting with Muslims in school and work, while studying in China in the early 1980s, it was my Uigher
classmates whose families had been Muslim for over 1300 years, who reintroduced me
to Islam. Due to their dawah and further
exposure to Islam, I took my shahadah.

Additional studies in
Arabic, Arabic Linguistics, North African and Middle Eastern Studies, and
several years working and studying in Muslim countries, these experiences led
me to study Shari'ah Sciences under Dr. Taha Al-Alawani. I will always be indebted to his vision of
thematic Quranic Interpretation, which informs my views on mainstream and alternative views within Islam. Combined, my exposure to a wide array of
Muslims from other parts of the world, and honing my skills in years of experience, I provide an
understanding of Shari'ah as applied within a non-Islamic country.

Though the counseling
process is individualized, after completing preliminary stages of the counseling
session, the client and Counselor establish ground rules and goals, and talk about trust issues and how we evaluate progress.
Utilizing
a spiritual and
holistic approach, that considers both spiritual and cultural
experiences--understanding Quran and weighing historical fact and
religious mythology--to reconcile Islamic cultural and theological
loggerheads in the
West.

Throughout the counseling process, clients are better informed
about the Quran, Sunnah and Hadith. Gaining that knowledge helps my
clients
reevaluate the facts, historically, and brings knowledge to their
situation, developing a plan to build balance into their daily lives.
